Chapter 1288: Chapter 1293 Stirring the Waters

There’s someone nearby, making a call is inconvenient, but Yang Yi is eager to find out what happened in Mosul, so he has no choice but to contact Grevatov as soon as possible.

"It’s me, Sea God."

"I know what you want to ask. Yes, Satan has entered Mosul, but I don’t know exactly what happened either!"

Yang Yi paused for a moment, then said softly, "You don’t know either?"

"There’s no time. Tartar only passed the message to Gong Yang. What Gong Yang did and their specific location, I don’t know at all."

"Tartar didn’t say?"

"He just made a call to Gong Yang. I think he’s in a very dangerous situation."

Yang Yi was a bit anxious, he whispered, "Are you kidding? Gong Yang dared to launch an attack when communication isn’t smooth?"

Grevatov whispered, "He’s a mercenary. They’re used to being surrounded, used to fighting without any support, so Gong Yang doesn’t have the habit of leaving a backup plan."

Yang Yi took a breath, then said softly, "I lost contact with the Old Demon, I’ll contact him myself, but if you have any news, please communicate with me promptly."

"Understood, we’ll stay in touch."

Grevatov was also anxious, Yang Yi could hear it, even though Grevatov’s tone was as calm as ever, he was speaking a bit faster.

Yang Yi knew things might be troublesome. He feared that Gong Yang, disregarding everything, launched an attack and that they might have already been completely wiped out, which would be the worst outcome.

He couldn’t say much more, there were two troublesome people beside him.

Yang Yi hung up the phone and said softly to the person who came to assist, "Buddy, where should we go now?"

The responder looked a bit confused, glancing around, then said softly, "Wait, I need to contact."

Without a phone, the responder whispered into his walkie-talkie, "This is Rock, Log and Green Leaf are dead, but Little Bird is fine. Where should we go now? Should we proceed to the airport as planned, over."

Yang Yi knew that there shouldn’t only be three people coming to assist. The Grey-cloaked People wouldn’t be so careless. At the very least, there should be someone nearby assisting, at least at the airport waiting to send him off, right?

Not sure what the one calling himself Rock said over the radio, he quickly turned to Yang Yi and said softly, "Follow me, we must leave here quickly."

Yang Yi moved closer and said softly to Rock, "How should I address you, Rock, right?"

"Yes, you can call me Rock."

Yang Yi took a breath and said softly, "Buddy, do you know where I came from?"

"Um, not really."

"Good, I was attacked in Mosul, and the people who were supposed to help me leave were all killed. We safely arrived here by air because the flight route was decided temporarily by the pilot, with no prior plan, so we got here smoothly, but we got attacked again here, and your two companions died."

Rock took a breath, then said softly to Yang Yi, "What do you want to say?"

"Don’t you find it strange? Okay, I’ll be direct, how much do you know about my situation?"

Rock was silent for a moment, then said softly, "I only know to come here to cover your escape."

"Yes, you don’t know much else, but you know to wait here, so who else knows?"

Rock was silent for a moment, then he looked at Yang Yi seriously and said, "Are you implying there’s a mole in our leadership?"

"That’s right, that’s what I mean."

Yang Yi candidly admitted the implication, then said to Rock, "Who could know about my hiding place in Mosul, who knows my landing spot?"

"I don’t know, I..."

Rock sighed, then said softly to Yang Yi, "You overestimate my status. I’m just a... field operative, I receive orders, I execute orders. Buddy, if you suspect something, you don’t need to tell me. If you suspect I’m the mole, then..."

"No, no, no, you aren’t, I know, because if one of the three of you is the mole, I’d be dead. Because... when did you start waiting here?"

"For an hour."

"Yes, an hour. If there was a prior arrangement, it wouldn’t just be two people attacking us, so I believe you’re not the mole."

Rock sighed, then hesitated for a moment before finally saying softly, "Maybe it’s... someone from the safe house?"

"Explain it in detail."

Rock paused for a while, then said softly, "We just arrived here not long ago, but the people at the safe house have always been here. We three know the specific meeting place, but the people at the safe house don’t, but now they should know. If, I mean if, it’s not the leadership betraying you, but the people at the safe house, then this could also be the result, because if we weren’t attacked, there would be no need to contact the people at the safe house, you’d be sent directly to the airport."

How to make oneself appear innocent? Of course, by muddying the waters as much as possible, making everyone involved seem suspicious.

Yang Yi wasn’t too worried about being suspected, but he also needed to start muddying the waters now.

Yang Yi paused for a moment, then said softly, "So, going to the safe house could be very dangerous."

"I don’t know, I’m just expressing my opinion, maybe you should contact your superiors."

Yang Yi nodded and said, "You’re right."

Dialed Aaron again, Yang Yi said softly on the phone, "Boss, we were attacked again in Baghdad, two of our people died, I think this matter is getting out of control. Can you tell me why the enemy shows up wherever I go?"

Aaron said softly, "I already know, and I know you’re okay."

Yang Yi exhaled lightly and said, "I understand. Maybe I should just hand the item to anyone, that way, maybe I can clear myself of suspicion."

Aaron remained silent.

Yang Yi continued, "I’m very troubled because so many people have died, and if I don’t die, somehow I’m still suspicious. So boss, tell me how to clear my name?"

Aaron said quietly, "Now’s not the time to talk about this, you should consider how to return safely."

Yang Yi sighed softly, "But boss, I think now is exactly the time to talk about this because I feel that if I have to hand the item to the people you sent to clear my name, then it’ll be hard to explain why I’m still okay. I’d like to think it’s because I’m and my people are really strong, stronger than anyone else, so we survived until now, but the problem is that this explanation seems unconvincing, which troubles me a lot."
